Hi guys ! I know about this App which gives the user the ability to control what personal information any app has access to.
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357056
It requires us to patch our ROM with a patch which is created by a patcher which has been provided in the OP for the app on XDA.
I would request any dev or user to help build a patch for our device.
If you know any other such app / MOD which gives us the ability to control the data an app has access to kindly please post with a link to that app.
Cheers!
Common guys no ones even interested to get this patch ?
Devs kindly help me ……

Along with GPS position permission off I think that's the best way to switch of ads & it helps save some battery life as well.
There's a lot more you can do with it man, so let's hope someone helps by making a patch for our handset.

Hello, i am currently on Indroid 5 rom. I knew its a very old version, but since a long time i didn't had time to update phone. But i have a very small question. Since this ROM has scripts inbuilt which block ads in phone. That's y don't see any advertisement in my phone, neither in browser nor in any app or game.
But i want to see those advertisements on my phone. I am a web designer and want to test mobile version of my sites on my phone, but i am unable to do so.
Plz don't suggest me to install native ROM by samsung, since i want to see ads on current rom only, since i am highly satisfied using it so.
Can any1 help me in this regard?

hehe... when you have hosts file which can used in any rom to stop any kind of ads in phone why need to use apps...???
they cant stop some ads sometimes due to some rules and problems of blocking
and by the way apps are not secure... or trust worthy.. or apps use this same way..
this is safe method and you can block anything whatever is written in hosts file..
highly configurable..
AdFree is great, simple and free aplication.

One X version should work. What might be a problem is the "update-binary-installer" (device dependent)
If the update-binary-installer isn't compatible with your device, the updater-script will fail and show a blank install screen.

And I'm sorry to say this but users like you is what keeping me away from supporting too many devices.
Helping lazy users all days isn't why I came here to XDA and developed ROM Cleaner.
Terms of Use
ROM Cleaner will remove apps and files
from your device.
If basic ROM Cleaner setup removed too much
apps and files after running, just download
"ROMCleaner_user.txt" or "NO-Sense_user.txt"
or "CM-AOSP_user.txt" from ROM Cleaner thread
@xda and make your personal edits.
More details can be found in second post...
ROM Cleaner is well tested by us and thousands
of users and should not make your phone unstable.
If you do get into trouble, make a post in the
adequate ROM Cleaner thread and we will help you.
Important!
When you flash this script you will heavily
modify the ROM! So before you report bugs or
non working apps (etc) in ROM Development threads,
think twice and please feel free to ask us first.
Requirements
- You can read this...
- Bloated HTC device
With other words, that's not a bug in ROM Cleaner.
You just didn't read about the ROMCleaner_user.txt.
Patrics83 said:
How To Edit Your Personal User.txt
Steps you need to do:
--- Windows users, download Notepad++ and install it.
--- Download "ROMCleaner_user.txt" or "NO-Sense_user.txt" from the firstpost
--- Open the text file with Notepad++
In the text file you will find two columns with app names and a description in this guide we use AdobeReader.apk as an example.
To Remove a file with ROMCleaner
Code:
AdobeReader.apk Adobe Reader PDF reader
In the case above "AdobeReader.apk" will be removed.
To keep a file with ROMCleaner If you decide to keep it, add a "#" at the beginning of the line:
Code:
[COLOR=Red]#[/COLOR]AdobeReader.apk Adobe Reader PDF reader
Let's say we are done with the edits. To continue just complete next list:
--- Press the "X" in the upper right corner of the screen to save the changes.
--- Copy the file onto your sdcard. The file must be located in "/sdcard/ROMCleaner" folder.
Now ROM Cleaner script will always read that file!

No. I took the one he shares on that thread. I went in the zip file and made minor adjustments for my 4.1.2 Rom. Then used it. I haven't shared it because even though I made some changes, it is ultimately his work so I haven't shared the one I made modifications to due to me not asking for his permissions to distribute it publicly on our forum. So I have held on to it as a personal resource.

Did i complain about it or something? Did I spamming your topic or your inbox because it remove radio apk?
Someone ask does script work with one sv because it doesn't officially support it. I wrote that it work but you need to push radio back to system.
Don't see why you have problem with that.

Well, you should know how frustrating it is developing, writing manuals and people not reading what they are flashing or how to use the freely provided software correctly. It takes lots of time dev-ing making it as user-friendly as possible. Most questions are answered in the manual, which you agreed to have read it while flashing.
Using ROMCleaner and edit it to your demands isn't really rocket science.
So don't stop reading manuals and replies, it will only lead to more frustration for us and to other users.
Having this said: I urge you leaving the discussion as it is, and PLEASE keep reading, as it shows some respect to Patrics83 and his team.
Let's go on with this thread. Cheers!

Currently only one keyboard is available. For changing that I have to port another application. I will try do that too. By the way, browser shouldn't crash like this. Try restarting the device and clearing app data.
What did you exactly port ??
You have just created a new OP post and added everything from Xpirit's thread. I can tell you are a beginner. But always remember ONE GOLDEN RULE.

In your case you have even copied the original links in your thread which is unforgivable.
